Refunds of room rent due to withdrawal from the University will be prorated on a weekly basis.

Nonrecurring fees, the application fee, the University fee, the Technology Fee and penalty fees will be charged in full, regardless of the period of attendance. **

Full time students who drop courses after the last day for late registration but remain full-time (12 or more credit hours) receive no refund. If a full-time student drops to part-time status, refund of the difference between the full-time tuition charge and the per-credit-hour charge for the courses being continued will be made in accordance with the schedule applicable in the event of total withdrawal. Students assessed tuition per credit hour, including part-time students, graduate students and students in a summer session, will be charged for courses dropped in accordance with the schedule applicable in the event of total withdrawal.

A student will be considered as having withdrawn from the University after two consecutive weeks of unexplained absence. However, this policy is not to be considered as revoking the regulation that requires a student to notify the Dean in person or in writing of his/her withdrawal. Refunds are made to the student on the basis of the date he/she has formally notified the Dean in person or in writing of their withdrawal.

*Class day is any day of the term when any class is in session, regardless of whether or not a specific course is scheduled to be held on that day.
